A New Flag for Macomb County
Intro:
Macomb County deserves a flag that represents its people, history, and future. Currently, the county does not have an official flag that is widely recognized, and the design that is often used is unofficial and lacks a clear identity.
This campaign aims to create a simple, meaningful, and modern flag that the residents can take pride in.

A strong flag should be:
Simple
Symbolic
Easy to recognize
Free of words
